While the above map from our first brochure in March 2004 is easy to view,
it is not meant to be printed. An high resolution (2352 by 1148 pixel)
version of this early
Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes map may be opened
in a separate window.
Or you may open the PDF file
in a separate window to give a readable 7.84 by 3.83 inch map at
a resolution of 300 dpi.

The ELEVENTH edition of 15,000Recreational
Trails of the Idaho Panhandlemaps are now in circulation.
The current 17" x 22", 20-panel color brochure has the
new home of the Friends at 413 Sixth Street in Wallace, Idaho,
featured on the back panel, but is otherwise similar to the last four editions,
which also had a forest green front panel.
As before, information on the former railbed of the
Old Milwaukee Road is featured.
We are working to enhance this route as a multi-use recreational road
and bike trail along the breathtaking St. Joe River.
Our interest in promoting the Old Milwaukee Road from
the East Portal of the Taft Tunnel to Saltese,
Montana, is also indicated. We are working with
Lolo National Forest personel to make this a safe, multi-use
recreational trail.

We are again pleased to have the Route of
the Hiawatha as a sponsor, and suggest that you visit
ridethehiawatha.com
for more information on this crown jewel of America's Rails-to-Trails.

Silver Mountain Resort is a repeat hospitality provider
in our eleventh edition.
If you are a downhill biking daredevil, you will definitely want to challenge
yourself on their mountain. With 3,300 vertical feet of descent possible, and 30 single
track trails to choose from, everyone's skill levels maybe accommodated.

Twenty-five other food, lodging and entertainment
providers located in Harrison, Enaville, Kellogg, Wallace, St. Maries and
the St. Joe River valley will help you as you travel along
the Trail of the Coeur
d'Alenes and the Old Milwaukee Road.

A complete listing of these sponsors organized by town will be found on our
Sponsors & Associates page.
Here we welcome these new advertisers:

However, we do include
a membership form with
each map in the hope that
you will return the favor by joining us as we work
to build a unified 185 mile bike loop that includes
the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes (paved for bikes and
blades), the Northern Pacific railbed (dirt for multi-use),
and parts of the Milwaukee Road railbed
(mostly dirt for multi-use),
which includes the Route of the Hiawatha (dirt
for mountain bikes and boots).
We have dubbed this adventure the
"Bitterroot 300K Loop."

The cover photo triptic on the sixth through eleventh editions of our
Recreational
Trails of the Idaho Panhandle emphasizes that
our organization promotes ALL local bicycle adventures, whether
they involve mountainous single track trails, dirt country roads
or paved bike paths.
